The Police have arrested four people, including former Central Bank Deputy Governor P. Samarasiri over the alleged bond scam, this morning.
Ranjan Hulugalle, a newly-appointed Director at the Associated Newspapers of Ceylon Limited (Lake House) is also among those who have been arrested.
Hulugalle was appointed the Director Finance at Lake House by Media Minister Ruwan Wijewardena recently.
All suspects, except for Samarasiri, have functioned as Directors of the Perpetual Trasuries Limited owned by controversial businessman Arjuna Aloysius.
Samarasiri functioned as a Deputy Governor of the Central Ban at the time the bond scam took place.
